Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album has a Bayesian average rating of 71.9/100, a mean average of 70.8/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 71.8/100. The standard deviation for this album is 14.0.

What black magic is this?

Fantastic! Great to see that they've still got it after all these years. Starts brilliantly, builds up and comes to an explosive end with 'Harpooned'

Continuing to poke and provoke within their silken art-rock, Wire - architects of post-punks 'perfect sound forever' irrigates and re-invigorates. Wire being Wire is perhaps not such a bad thing especially when they manage to piss brilliance like this.
